RE: is there a difference between irons?
My old iron was the Horizon unit. When it burnt out I happen to have one of the old style Hobbicos with the wood handle NIB. It's kind of cluncky compared to my old Horizon and it's taken some time to know where the heat should be set but I finally got it figured out. My Trim iron fell off the bench and the thin shoe broke and they have no replacements for that. I will have to replace that iron soon.
